Outline and Purpose of the Course Civil Engineering is the study which provides the essential technology and knowledge to improve social infrastructures. Various science, technology and knowledge are required in order to realize "convenient and comfortable cities", "safe countries to live in", "eco-friendly global society" and "sustainable civilization based on resources and energy". As an introduction to learn Civil Engineering, this course explains the essence of Civil Engineering from four fields in Civil Engineering (Structural Engineering, Hydraulics and Hydrology, Geotechnical Engineering and Planning and Management). Throughout the lectures and exercises including visiting lecturers, it is expected to learn the essence of Civil Engineering and the ethic of the engineering.
Course Goals To understand that Civil Engineering is the organization of the technology and knowledge related to social capital improvement, prevention or mitigation of disaster and creation of environment.
Schedule and Contents Introduction to Civil Engineering,2times,The content of the course is introduced. Then, the study field of Civil Engineering including latest topics and the ethic of Civil Engineers throughout the achievement of predecessors is introduced.

Structual Enginnering,3times,Civil Engineering is introduced in the viewpoint of Structural Engineering, which includes natural disasters and structural engineering, introduction of new technology and research, the collaboration with other fields, etc.

Hydraulic Engineering,3times,There will be three lectures corresponding to Hydraulic Engineering. These three lectures provide the student with basic knowledge of hydraulics from an engineering perspective corresponding to mitigation/prevention of flood induced disasters in river and coastal areas, towards establishment of safe and sustainable water environments. The fundamentals of hydraulic structure design related to hydrostatic analysis will be explained along with examples related to dams, weirs and floating bodies.

Geotechnical Engineering,3times,Civil Engineering is introduced in the view point of geotechnical Engineering, which includes soil mechanics, geo-hazard mitigation, geo-environment, international cooperation, etc.

Planning and Management,3times,Civil Engineering is introduced in the view point of designing and managing social Infrastructure, which includes an asset management of social infrastructure, soft measures for traffic jam, logistic vehicles in urban area, etc.
Achievement confirmation,1time,Achievement of learning is confirmed.
Evaluation Methods and Policy The score is evaluated comprehensively from reports for each lecture (including performance scores in the class) and the final examination. The full score is 100 marks which consists of 50 marks from reports and 50 marks from the final examination.
Course Requirements No specific prior knowledge is required
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) To be notified by instructor during his/her lecture.
Textbooks Textbooks/References Handouts will be distributed as appropriate.
